There are several reasons that Event Triggers need to be re-created and must use a different name.
Right now, if the Event Trigger changes, we have to go into the Email and re-select the Event Trigger for each personalized field it provides.
It would be nice if we can simply change/update the Event Trigger used by an Email in a single location. Since personalization only allows us to use one Trigger per Email - it would make sense to have an Event Trigger field at a higher level that we can change.
So for example, I have 5 fields that are personalized & provided by Event Trigger A. For some reason, I must switch to using Event Trigger B. The same attributes/fields exist in Trigger B. I would like to go to a field, update it from Event Trigger A to Event Trigger B. The personalization automatically updates. If for some reason a field in my email is not found in the new Trigger, you would just highlight that with a red exclamation point like you do now if the source needs identified.

Apologies on the extreme delay in response here.I think this is good feedback and will help with ease of use of the event triggers in RTM.I have added this to my backlog of features that we can work on for event triggers.
